Been a while since I've been on this forum, but I wanted to share my latest project I've been working on for a while. Factory system was OK when I bought the car but always knew I wanted to upgrade at some point. Sounds great! My wife, which could care less, even commented on the sound!

 

Infinity Reference 6832cf in all four doors (tweeter swivels upward)

Audiocontrol LC7i processor (Acubass is incredible)

Blaupunkt AMP1504 4-channel amp (150W x 4 RMS)

and Kicker Hideaway subwoofer under the "40" seat (not looking for a window rattler, but surprisingly puts out a lot of bass)

 

The LC7i makes the sub perform so much better and the sound is so much more full. Collected components over the years and bought when I could get a really good deal so only have about $500 in the entire system, including cables and wiring. It was important to me that the car looked stock so I wanted everything to be hidden with minimal modifications.

 

I am even surprised at the improved sound. Well worth your time if you care about the music in your car.

Factory. LC7i takes high level inputs, processes sound and converts them to low level outputs. I haven't had any issues with my factory head unit and I really wanted the car to look factory.

How did you tap into the factory speaker wires?  Where'd you grab remote from or did you use the signal sensing from the Audio Control?  Did you need a special harness to get the speaker level inputs?

Thank you.

I'm confused on the stereo wiring. 2013 edge non Sony and need a 2 amp draw for a DSP. Which  color is the wire can I tap into behind the radio? Sorry but if been searching for the answer for hours. Very new to forums at all

I did about a 2700watt system with a home lot of stuff. Everything isn’t mounts with the second amp yet. Had heat issues with keeping it at the factory amp location.
